Dear Sir 

Section 17[2] speaks of also exempt supplies and not exempt income. Plz elaborate the query

No reversal of ITC is required u/s 17(2) read with rule 42 & 43 against PPF interest & FDR Interest earned by a tax-payer (other than 'a banking company or a financial institution including a non-banking financial company, engaged in supplying services by way of accepting deposits, extending loans or advances')  in view of explanation (1)(b) given under Rule 43 of the CGST Rules, 2017.

In above-said explanation, it is clarified that the aggregate value of exempt supplies for such tax-payer shall exclude 'the value of services by way of accepting deposits, extending loans or advances in so far as the consideration is represented by way of interest or discount' for the purposes of rule 42 & 43

These are ex facie views of mine and the same should not be construed as professional advice / suggestion.

Sh.Komal Agarwal Ji,

(i) I concur with the views of Sh. Sadanand Bulbule Ji, Sir. For correct and concrete reply, more details are required.

Answer to query no. 1 : Every kind of interest is not exempt supply for the purpose of Rules 42 & 43.. Read Explanation [1] (b) below Rule 43 (5) (applicable to Rules 42 & 43 both). You are required to focus on exceptions i.e. What is to be excluded and what is not to be excluded. Every kind of exempt supply is not to be included for the purpose of reversal under Rules 42 & 43. Also read Explanation-3 of Rule 43.

So elaborate your query after going through the Explanations.

Answer to query no.2 : YES.

You would have to disclose it as exempt income. However, as per explanation after rule 43 no requirement of reversal of ITC>

I agree with the views of Ld friend Amit Ji. No reversal is required in light of the explanation there to. I have got a fav order in adjudication level itself.
